Christopher Wray is resigning as FBI director, multiple news outlets are reporting.

Wray, who President Donald Trump appointed in 2017, had three years left in his term. However, the move isn’t as a surprise as now President-elect Trump announced he would nominate Kash Patel to be the new FBI director.

Wray presided over the FBI’s raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in 2022. He also butted heads with Republicans in Congress–including Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio—over the bureau’s monitoring of traditional Catholics as well as parents speaking at public school board meetings.

Wray has reportedly said he would resign before Trump takes office.
